No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.
The Zinc will displace the copper. It will become Zinc Sulphate. The word equation will be Zinc + Copper Sulphate -----> Copper + Zinc Sulphate. Hope this helps!
because in table of re-activity of metals it is below zinc
more reactive than copper. In a displacement reaction, the more reactive element will displace the less reactive element from its compound. Zinc has a higher reactivity than copper on the reactivity series of metals, allowing it to displace copper in the reaction.
zinc is more reactive than copper hence it displaces the copper in copper sulphate solution to become zinc sulphate and copper metal is formed
No, copper is less reactive than zinc. The sulphate ion stays attached to the zinc.

The reaction between copper sulfate and zinc can be represented by the following equation: CuSO4 + Zn -> ZnSO4 + Cu. In this reaction, zinc replaces copper in the copper sulfate solution, resulting in the formation of zinc sulfate and solid copper.

Silver is lower in the reactivity series than Zinc and therfore cannot displace the Sulphate from the Zinc. But on the other hand zinc is higher than copper, and when displacing the sulphate from the copper it changes colour due to the reaction. Reactivity series(metals): Potassium Sodium Lithium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium Zinc Iron Tin Lead Copper Silver Gold Platinum

Hi there, I am not very sure what the coating is called but i think it is iron oxide. lolxx
it is because zinc is more reactive than copper. thus it can replace copper from its compound. displacement reaction is the reaction in which the more reactive element replaces the less reactive element from its compound. hence zinc is replacing copper from its compound. Obviously it is a displacement reaction.
Copper rods cannot separate zinc from zinc sulphate because copper is less reactive than zinc, and cannot separate the zinc which is more reactive than copper. If you get copper sulphate and add some zinc to it, you will see solid copper appearing on the bottom of the test tube... The copper cannot push out the zinc from the solution and take its place.

Zinc is higher than copper in the electrochemical series, so it will displace copper from it's solutions.Zn + CuSO4 = ZnSO4 + CuCopper plates onto the zinc as a small amount of zinc sulphate is produced.
